As an European, I don't see the problem with what's being argued here. The photo is art, as is, and it should be automatically covered by copyright. You can't download a photo and sell it. This is a 1:1 replica of the…
Sorry I don’t think Firefox lost because of extensions. Nobody cared except us. They lost because on Google advertised the living * out of Chrome. Firefox couldn’t compete regardless, it offered an inferior product out…
> These companies assume we are too lazy, misinformed, and stupid to do anything. Correctly assume * HN is not representative of the general population, a lot of people don’t bother to switch every provider every year,…
Knowing the history of Firefox, XUL extensions and their demise, this feels more of a limitation. For those who don't know, Firefox couldn't innovate because any change to the UI broke half the extension ecosystem. This…
Ironic and fantastic. So many good ideas are born and die with short-lived projects because no one bothered to extract and polish them as standalone solutions while the project was still alive. Atom will continue living…
You’re joking but adblocking has been available on Safari iOS for several years
I can’t get really past the guy’s attitude. From the get go he’s mocking the work from the marketing to materials, and he’s not doing it in a fun way. Just plain denigrating. I thought you linked to B1M or something.
I’m surprised it’s still around. Since GitHub released Actions and Travis abandoned the freemium, there weren’t many reasons to stay
How do you link your hardware key to the website? You still have to plug it into a proprietary black box. If you think your computer security is weak, it will continue to be the weak link even with with a hardware key.

I’m having the same experience with it. They’re trying too hard to be politically correct and it’s annoying.
“Tusk-less elephants outbreed tusked ones” But that wouldn’t be as catchy and as misleading/misunderstood as the original. Anyone reading that one will assume that elephants are purposefully being born without tusk, but…
Maybe it's because I'm specifically trying to push its buttons, but every answer I get from ChatGPT is super boring, cookie cutter and "politically correct". OP’s input no longer generate anything useful (it says "I…
No experience with the US market, but I thought that thanks to planes like A350 the opposite was happening: new routes between smaller cities thanks to fuel efficiency. It's possible that in the US you're seeing that as…
Completely irrelevant and MDN is infuriatingly “wrong.” 1px is not 1 physical pixel anywhere anymore. It’s just a “base unit” that we all agreed on decades ago. It could be 4 display pixels, it could be 9, it could be…
Ironically this is the least accessible solution because it doesn’t let the user change the font size at all (not that it’s particularly common in this day and age, due to full-page zooming being the default since at…
If you’re talking about the zoom controls in Safari (and any other modern browser), units are completely irrelevant. For the last 15 years, browsers have been changing the size of 1px rather than changing the root…
I'm looking at it on MacBook with 40% brightness and I can tell the difference, but yeah it's only slightly better. Reading the comment I was expecting some orange outline but there's only a very light "gamma"…
I thought variable width fonts were pretty heavy? I don’t think you actually save data over loading two separate weights. The savings come in later (3+ weights)
So I ask for a translation and it fails because it times out, giving me an error. And you call that good programming? I get it that the server translations are better, but currently I’m not seeing any translation at…
I think you can find those answered spelled out online. In short, it’s not JPEG 2000.
I don’t know what you’re using but most developers most likely don’t need “lots of -webkit- prefixes”. In the link posted by the sibling commenter, I see 2-3 properties that could be useful to the general public. The…
Love it. But all the languages are pretty similar to each other, I’d argue. I want to see it working with some exotic language like Mandarin. Most translators deliver hilarious results when translating Japanese for…
That’s just bad programming. Turn on Airplane Mode and it will work. A bunch of apps won’t even try to use offline data when they’re “online”, even if the connection is 1 byte/second.
Side note: I love websites that break the mold with alternative layouts like this one, even though it's still simple and beautiful.
